Pilot Vlog 7: Find out how I mucked up an IFR flight plan, plus cloud surfing in the Cirrus SR20 and looking around Horsham Airport in Country Victoria.

This was the longest IFR flight I've flown since getting my Instrument Rating, around an hour out of Melbourne. This vlog includes the departure from Moorabbin Airport, climbing through cloud into Melbourne's Class C controlled airspace, being vectored around Melbourne Tullamarine Airport, and the RNAV approach and landing at Horsham.
